Africa is the world's second-largest and second most-populous continent, after Asia. At about 30.2 million km² (11.7 million sq mi) including adjacent islands, it covers 6% of the Earth's total surface area and 20.4% of the total land area. With a billion people (as of 2009, see table) in 61 territories, it accounts for about 14.72% of the world's human population.

The continent is surrounded by the Mediterranean Sea to the north, both the Suez Canal and the Red Sea along the Sinai Peninsula to the northeast, the Indian Ocean to the southeast, and the Atlantic Ocean to the west. The continent has 54 sovereign states, including Madagascar, various island groups, and the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic, a member state of the African Union whose statehood is disputed by Morocco.

Africa, particularly central eastern Africa, is widely regarded within the scientific community to be the origin of humans and the Hominidae clade (great apes), as evidenced by the discovery of the earliest hominids and their ancestors, as well as later ones that have been dated to around seven million years ago – including Sahelanthropus tchadensis, Australopithecus africanus, A. afarensis, Homo erectus, H. habilis and H. ergaster – with the earliest Homo sapiens (modern human) found in Ethiopia being dated to circa 200,000 years ago.

Africa straddles the equator and encompasses numerous climate areas; it is the only continent to stretch from the northern temperate to southern temperate zones.

How has Africa s internal diversity and outside influences affected its development and ability to be a part?
Q. How has Africa s internal diversity and outside influences affected its development and ability to be a part of the modern global community? During the 20th and 21st Centuries, Africa has been ripe with civil war, and often times, genocide. What main factors do you think have contributed to civil war in Africa? Are European influences, tribal differences, geographical factors, outside forces or other issues the key reason for civil unrest on the continent?

Does the misery in Africa become a great way to sell iPods, cellphones and clothes as can be seen advertised?
Q. I think the misery in Africa became a great market to sell products and to promote celebreties. Feeding the starvation may had become a much better option than ending with it. We can't forget there is New Orleans here too.

A. showing starving people helps to gain sympathy to sell products. They will never end poverty and hunger, it sells too much.

A. The best way to help others is to be a good example of independent success, if you give African people money, food, etc. then that's HOW they get it from now on...You are not helping them, you are helping a parasitic political organization to spread propaganda... Why would they improve their position when you are sending all this help? They've already got it made! The best way to help these people is to let them discover what they can accomplish on their own...Or, if they are destined to suffer for their whole lives, then let them die quickly instead of stretching it out over years and years. YOU DON'T know these people...When you set out to help them you are only doing it to feel better about your status as a capitalist...a politic that… [cont.]
